In the Diary of a Pug series, readers meet Baron von Bubbles, aka Bub, who loves peanut butter, fashion, and his human, Bella — and dislikes the rain, baths, and a pesky squirrel named Nutz. Bub is very particular about things, and when his likes and dislikes cross paths, hilarity ensues!
Part of Scholastic’s Branches line of books, the Diary of a Pug series is perfect for beginning readers in grades K-2. Kids will not only love the characters for their relatable antics, but will also develop their reading comprehension skills and learn how to navigate their feelings.
For example, in Diary of a Pug #1: Pug Blasts Off, Bub helps Bella with a science project for the Inventor Challenge. But when Nutz gets on Bub’s nerves, he winds up destroying Bella’s project, and Bub needs to find a way to make it up to Bella and stand up to Nutz.
Meanwhile, in the hilarious new Diary of a Pug #10: Beach Pug, readers will follow along on Bub's first trip to the beach! Bella wants to enter Bub in a dog-surfing contest, but quickly realizes that he is afraid of the ocean. Can Bub find a way to save the trip from turning into a total wipeout?
